Abstract/Description: | Introduction - Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis Gaertn.) is a therapeutically important underutilized fruit due to the presence of high amount of two well-known antioxidants, ascorbic acid and polyphenols. The present study aimed at identification and quantification of different phenolic compounds and ascorbic acid in fresh fruits of seven cultivars and two promising accessions of Indian gooseberry. Materials and methods - Ascorbic acid was estimated by titrimetric method and individual phenolic compounds were identified and quantified by RP-HPLC method with PDA detector. Multivariate method and ANOVA were applied for statistical evaluation. Results - The content of ascorbic acid varied from 335.24 mg 100 g-1 ('NA-7') to 1278.31 mg 100 g-1 ('Desi') among the cultivars, whereas it ranged between 418.12 mg 100 g-1 (CISH A-31) and 490.13 mg 100 g-1 (CISH A-33) among the accessions. Seven phenolic compounds were identified and quantified at various proportions in different aonla cultivars and their variations among the cultivars were assessed. Among the cultivars/accessions studied, 'Desi' aonla possessed maximum amount of total polyphenols (58.207 mg g-1) followed by CISH A-31 (40.708 mg g-1) and 'NA-6' (35.081 mg g-1). Multivariate evaluation revealed that gallic acid, p-coumaric acid, total polyphenols and ascorbic acid were the major variables in aonla and 'Desi' and 'NA-6' were the most important cultivars. Conclusion - 'Desi' aonla fruits were the richest source of ascorbic acid and phenolic compounds among the cultivars. Two accessions along with cultivars 'NA-6', 'Krishna' and 'Lakshmi 52' were also rich in both the nutraceuticals. These cultivars and accessions are not only beneficial for human health but can also be used in processing and phyto-pharmaceutical industries. |
